The solar system appears to be stable: Calculations into the future using Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation show that the Sun and the planets will behave in the future much as they have done in the past. The Earth will move in its yearly, very nearly elliptical, Keplerian orbit around the Sun, as will the other planets in their years. No planet will suddenly take off for deep space or fall into the Sun, nor will two of the (major) planets collide.
